Kathryn and Jason were amazing pet sitters for our labradoodle while we were away! Great communications, easy to schedule drop off/ pick up, and most importantly they were very caring for our pup. She clearly had a great time with them. We will definitely book with them again!

Yoko was wonderful with our senior dog Wednesday. She took great care of her and provided pictures and updates to help us know Wednesday was safe and well-cared for while we were away. I would highly recommend Yoko and would definitely book with her again.

I can’t believe we got this lucky. Michael is only the nicest human on the planet. He and his family took the best care of our Brucey while we were on our 2.5-week trip to Ireland. Daily walks, daily pics, great guy, the best care. Only negative is that I thiiiiiink he stole my dog’s heart ♥️

I’m soooo happy I found Kelly. We received daily updates and Kenzie loved all the friends she met. Our dog loves long walks and even though it rained the whole week, Kelly took every opportunity to walk her when it stopped raining. She also gave Kenzie a goodie bag and a Xmas present when we picked her up.

It was a great experience having Natalie take care of Isabella while I was out of town. Natalie and her family provided a warm, comfortable environment, so Isabella was comfortable from the start. Natalie is very considerate and that along with her experience with dogs was comforting to me.

We recently had the pleasure of leaving our maltipoo, Toto, in Di’s care — and we couldn’t be happier with the experience! From the moment we dropped Toto off, Di made sure she felt right at home. We could tell Toto was not just being watched, but truly cared for — she got plenty of walks, playtime, and cuddles. When we picked her up, she was happy, healthy, and clearly had a great time. We are so grateful to Di for treating Toto like part of the family. We will definitely be booking again and highly recommend Di to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving sitter for their fur baby!

Ivan was so good to Toko and Arya while I was gone! They're both small dogs who are reserved around new people and new dogs. Toko came to him with a broken foot and a bunch of built up anxiety since he couldn't exercise, while Arya has way too much energy. He was very careful to make sure Toko stayed comfortable and couldn't injure himself, but also took Arya on several long adventures. Ivan sent me many great photos and daily updates of the pups while I was on vacation, which greatly reduced my own anxiety over them staying over! I could tell they had a great time, and I won't hesitate to book Ivan again!

Deepa and Deb are so great with Norman. He’s very shy and tentative with new people and he’s definitely grown to love staying with them. They are always patient with him and we know we can trust them every time. Also great communicators and always send pictures! We definitely recommend!

About: I grew up with two poodles that I adopted in elementary school, and we spent 15 years together. I was truly like a “dog mom” to them :) Boy is “Peace” girl is “Nation” they are siblings I took full responsibility for their daily care, including bathing, ear cleaning, playing, walking, and cleaning up :) I was very hands-on and attentive to their needs, and they are a big part of my life. Growing up alongside my dogs taught me patience, responsibility, and how to care for dogs with love and consistency. I am comfortable with all aspects of dogs care Because I cared for them from puppies to adults, I understand how dogs’ needs change over time and how important gentle, attentive care is! Always with Love💕 I go to school on weekday mornings, but I am home and available to care for dogs in the afternoons. I have full availability on weekends for walks, playtime, and daycare. My home is in a dog-friendly apartment with a secure dog park, giving dogs plenty of space to run, play, and explore safely. Plus, there’s a nearby park perfect for walks and outdoor adventures.

About: As a pet parent myself, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your dog. I treat every dog as if they were my own, with kindness, reliability, and plenty of love, so you can feel confident they’re safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m currently home full time, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m available throughout the day for walks, feedings, playtime, companionship, and potty breaks. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment in my single family house, which includes a fully fenced backyard for outdoor break and play time.

Bosco had a wonderful time with Akio (oh, and Angela and her family were pretty cool, too). He enjoyed the walks, the dog park, the constant company and wrestling with Akio - the icing on the puppy cake was the crunchy homemade sweet potato treats (I'm jealous myself). 10/10, would book again :)

Ivan was absolutely wonderful, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. From the very first day, it was clear how kind, attentive, and genuinely caring he is. Our dog stayed with Ivan for 8 days, and throughout that time we felt completely at ease knowing everything was in such loving and responsible hands. Ivan kept us regularly updated and sent photos, which meant so much and gave us total peace of mind. He was incredibly accommodating and treated our dog as if he were his own. We came back to a happy, calm dog - which truly says it all. It’s rare to find someone you can fully trust, and Ivan is absolutely one of those people. We are beyond grateful and will definitely be using him again. Highly, highly recommend to anyone looking for exceptional and loving care. 🐶❤️
